MAYHEM Drummer Breaks Arm; Band Cancels HELLFEST Appearance

June 15, 2007

Norwegian black metallers MAYHEM have been forced to cancel their appearance at this year's Hellfest — set to take place June 23-25 in Clisson, France — after MAYHEM/DIMMU BORGIR drummer Jan Axel von Blomberg (a.k.a. Hellhammer) broke his arm, making it impossible for him to play the event. Replacing MAYHEM on the festival billing is ENSLAVED.

MAYHEM's latest CD, "Ordo Ad Chao", entered the Norwegian album chart at position No. 12, the band's highest position ever.

MAYHEM had only once before been on the Norwegian charts, when the band's last album, "Chimaira", reached No. 28 in 2004.
